From time to time, when I close Safari on Mac and open again, browser logs me out from all website. I don't understand why. It is not convenient to log in on all websites even time. Why does Safari do this?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.4
If the user ( you ) have cleared the Cache of Safari or have configured Safari to Delete History after One Day - the Site Cookies may get deleted.
This could be a part of why Safari will have to Log Back into a site more often than the User ( you ) desire
Refer to below image
This is to be expected, and a reasonable security measure, and I don't think Safari itself is doing anything.
Besides, even if you don't quit Safari, any decent website will log you out after a certain amount of time.
To pickup on the advise from @Luis S above.
Try Logging into your Investment Accounts or Bank Accounts and just let Safari stay on that Secure Site inactive for maybe 10 minutes or less.
What happens ?
That is not the effect of Safari on macOS Monterey but the Site itself.
I don't remember this behaviour earlier. it started happening a couple of months ago. Moreover, some websites ask me to go for two-factor authentication. It looks like I reset cache and websites determine me like a user who login from this device for the first time. Browser thinks as if me is not me. It doesn't`t recognise me, and it is strange.
we don’t say about Bank Accoints. Everything is clear with this. How about google accounts? How many times a week you open Safari and Enter your login and password with a special verification? I do this several times a week! It is not normal, do you agree?
I may use google accounts for some time, than close browser and and immediately open again, and google ask me to verify my ID with a special verification. It is several second when browser was closed and google logs me out and forgot me. And google accounts are not single who ask me to log in one kore time. Is that ok behavior of the browser for you?

I'd rather have some slight inconvenience - which is minor, in no small part because I can use Touch id and Safari saved passwords - than risking that someone else could steal my login session.
I don't have requests for 2FA all the time. These occur only from time to time - for example, to log in to these forums I am only asked for a 2FA code about once a month.
Q - " From time to time, when I close Safari on Mac and open again, browser logs me out from all website. "
A - It is clear all websites would include Bank to Investment accounts. Definition of all " used to refer to the whole quantity or extent of a particular group or things "
A - That was an example and referring to @Luis S. mention of " any decent website will log you out after a certain amount of time "

A - These Apple Support Forums are not the place to make this personal.
A - The Forums are to assist others on Technical Apple Hardware and Apple Software Technical issues
A - Anything outside of those perimeters, is generally off limits and runs the risk of the Moderators actioning such behaviours as they see fit.
I wrote in the first message that Safari didn't work like that earlier. You started to explain me why this is normal.
Q – «Anything outside of those perimeters, is generally off limits and runs the risk of the Moderators actioning such behaviours as they see fit».
A – Let's them make a decision. Waiting for their attention.
Then live with this behaviours.
Thanks for the advice, I'll do without it.
This is, IMHO, not an Apple Technical Issue but rather a personal preference and personal usage issue
You assumption is your assumption. This is for 100% a system setup
Here is the thing ... It always was manually
Then live with this behaviours.

Unless there is some other agenda at play here
try using amphetamine app and set it to never go to the freezer 😉
Safari on Mac constantly logs me out
